Details of a Roman wellhead from the 1st century BC. Three scenes show aroused men, two of them visibly, trying to get their way with resisting women. The last scene (swipe left) shows an aroused bearded man grabbing the arm of a younger man who is trying to walk away. Victorian scholars tried to explain this as a hermaphrodite or an androgynous female, for surely the Classical Romans would never countenance homosexuality. But, no, they did, and they carved it on their wellhead. #art#sculpture#relief#highrelief#marble#roman#britishmuseum#london#england#unitedkingdom
